This web site shows some items from a shop in old Tallinn...I have bought a few pieces from him recently...ironically they did not belong to him but one of his shop assistant's who was selling some items from her private collection. He has a nice shop with some good pieces but also many made up groups. He is worth examining if you know what to look for....he is expensive but can be knocked down. Small world. Chris

This is a member of the "Get Ready" series of badges, this one for medical aspects for defence. I guess this one must be for Para medics....1934 issue. Chris -

Soviet Two Early Aviation Badges
Chris S replied to Chuck In Oregon's topic in Russia: Soviet Orders, Medals & Decorations
This is a very early Pilots badge for the first Soviet civil aviation fleet "Dobrolyot". The emblem was created by artist K.S.Malevich. This fleet had quite a close conection to early German civil aviation as well....so much so that I think the badge may be even made in Germany as the catch is so ....er...well German! Any thoughts?

Hi Kev yes, the LMG was converted to 7.62 and the flash hider was different, the mag did fit on the SLR, I carried 11 mags ( and bandoleers) and most of these were LMG...not issued but proffed over the years. Happiness in a contact is mucho ammo. I would never want to hump a .5 Chris

Yes, but depending on which unit you were in....we had a LMG (as we were an artic unit...mags being better than belts due to freezing) and a GPMG in each section. Chris
